The EU should legalize marijuana for medical and recreational use.

Pros

Cons

Legalizing marijuana would be good for the environment.

Legalizing would take away the feeling of doing wrong for those who smoke for medical purposes. People could feel freedom rather than incorrectness and fear of going to jail or being judged by people as a criminal. Then smoking weed would provide mental well being.

Legalization could prevent dealers from mixing cannabis with other (more dangerous) substances/drugs.

Criminalization of cannabis is funding the organized crime syndicates in the EU.
